Summary
Xyloglucan endotransglucosylase
/hydrolases (XTHs) are enzymes that play a crucial role in the modification and restructuring of
Plant Cell Walls
by
Cleaving and rejoining xyloglucan chains
, which are essential for
Cell wall flexibility
and growth. They are involved in processes like
Cell Expansion
,
Fruit Ripening
, and
Response to environmental stresses
, making them vital for
Plant Development
and adaptation.
